Auto Switch Mode question

Post by *darren1234 »

Auto Switch Mode is not working for me.
Trying to get onedrive camera uploads folder (stored on secondary 4TB drive G:) to display in thumbnail view.
Is there a way to accomplish the same thing using an autohotkey script ? If so please share.

Auto Switch works for all of us, so why should one develop a script.
What settings did you made to get it working ?

hmmm - just deleted all auto switch settings and redid the onedrive camera folder - its working now.
Now I need to know how to revert back to default view when navigating out of this folder ?

Put this in the "Auto-run commands" field:

Code: Select all

|cm_SrcLong
including the | in front of the command - this will set the view to "Full"

Try F1 key - it is easy, trust me! :-)
TC Help wrote: Auto-run commands: Commands to run when the view mode changes. Supports internal commands cm_x and user-defined commands em_x.
Put a * in front of the commands to run them on each directory change to and within that view mode. Without the *, the commands are executed only when switching from a different view mode to this view mode. Use a comma to use multiple commands.
To run commands when a view mode is left, put them behind | (vertical line).
Example: cm_100percent|cm_50percent
Expands the active panel to full window width when activating a specific view mode (e.g. thumbnails view), and returns to 50:50 view when leaving that view mode.
It's impossible to lead us astray for we don't care even to choose the way.

You have to set the <Default> view mode for this.
